Can Giambattista Valli work a theme? Does Moncler make down jackets? No designer may ever again stage an “urban jungle” fashion show so literally — and so rambunctiously.

For once, the steamy Couvent des Cordeliers venue made sense with Valli’s set of dangling rain-forest greenery. (Dior’s seems a distant memory now, so no biggie.) Above it were flashing siren lights; below, pavement. Are you getting the picture?

There were clues in the clothes. Summer parkas, T-shirts and shift dresses came in panels of athletic mesh and animal prints — fluffed here with feathers, slicked there with nylon in asphalt black or safety-jacket orange. The men wore oversize anoraks and shorts that sometimes read safari, sometimes the basketball court.

The pacing gave other hints, too: first a herd of giraffe, zebra and python prints (the latter sometimes rendered as intricate quilting); then an interlude of shirtless teens whizzing by on skateboards.

For those too weary from the international marathon of fashion shows, the last riders on the runway were two men in gorilla suits. Urban jungle, get it?

“I am of tradition, but that doesn’t mean I have an old outlook on life,” Hubert de Givenchy told WWD in an interview in 1978. The legendary designer, who died last week at the age of 91, achieved wide success soon after launching his own couture boutique in the early ’50s, but he refused to pine for that time. For the first time since its original publication, read our interview with Givenchy on his awe for Audrey Hepburn and looking forward. Link in bio. #wwdarchives #fbf (📷: Pierre Schermann)

About last night: @alexachung and @supergausa toasted the launch of their capsule collection. “It’s the shape that I love, so rather than amend the last and make the sole crazy or do anything wild, we just did really subtle additions that I think make it look really luxe-y,” said Chung. #wwdfashion (📷: Marc Patrick)
